DES MOINES, Iowa -- On Friday, ground broke on a new Boys & Girls Club at Drake University.

This is the third club in America to be held on a private university. Dozens of people cheered on as the sketches of the new club were unveiled to public, but the ceremony meant even more to some in attendance.

"It’s all about the future for our kids. It’s all about ensuring them that tomorrow might be better than today," said Jodie Warth, CEO of the Boys & Girls Club.

Officials said the price tag for this club and one more in the area is $11 million, which is paid for by donors.
